Access to LAND | FUNDAPAZ

Welcome to our site

Inequality in land access is a regional phenomenon

In Argentina

% of large landowners hold 36% of the land (Source: OXFAM)

Indigenous communities are key to caring for the territory

% of the Dry Chaco forests are on indigenous lands.*

Most of this tenure lacks legal backing

% of those indigenous lands lack secure tenure.*

Research confirms

Where Indigenous and rural families own their land forests are better preserved.*
